Born in Brooklyn, New York in 1929, Howard L. Bonington is a retired architect who was active in the profession in New York City for more than 40 years. Upon retiring to the Cape, Bonington continues to expand his interest in drawing private residences, landmarks, scenes, plants, animals, and airplanes. When traveling, he usually substitutes a sketchbook for a camera. His collection of on-site drawings numbers in the hundreds. While using watercolor and colored pencil on occasion, he has specialized in black and white pen & ink drawings. He enjoys testing its reliance on the limited graphic options available, such as weighted line work, textures and contrasts to achieve the desired effects.
